Well, for a start I know that al lot of the pygame libs are written in C or C++. So those can be discounted straight away. The biggest problem to performance seems to be the pyOpenGL libraries.

Exactly, that code has to run more efficiently.

The latest revisions make very little difference to 3.120. It certainly isn't a 4.0.0 yet for the alpha release

You'll have to either set up for SVN use or use official releases.

Re: FoFiX 4.0.0 Development Thread
You don't have to uninstall fofix when using svn, you can just delete the folder.
Only thing you install is tortoise svn, which is a very handy program.
Question:
I was editing an ini from one of the earlier RBDLC's (from mr. faust's thread) and they have 'unlockr_id' instead of 'unlockb_id' (like all the ini's in the 'rb dlc uncracked' thread) for bass, and unlockb for band.
When the feature will be implemented in FoFiX, does anyone know if it's going to be r or b?
Personally I prefer unlockb_id for bass and unlock_id for band (partly because I already edited half of mr. fausts ini's). Maybe rhythm.ogg could be changed to bass.ogg too to avoid confusion.

i am a c++ game developer.
i love the game but i have trouble with performance. i only got around 20fps
thats way to low to play accurately.
i think the lack of performance is due to python or libs that are used by python
so i decided to ask if it is possible or appreciated for the fofix developers to use a c++ lib for time critical functions..
i really would like to write such a lib and help increasing the performance of fofix.
is there any interest?

Note that we already use quite alot of C/C++ libraries either directly (e.g. John's pitchbend) or indirectly (e.g. pygame uses SDL).
Still, more efficient or new python bindings to existing and maintained C/C++ libraries would sure be much appreciated.
PyOpenGL 3 is currently our bottleneck.
If I understand correctly, there are 2 reasons for this:
- ctypes aren't as fast as using SWIG;
- Starting with version 3, direct rendering (glBegin/glEnd blocks) are much much slower. Therefore we must do array-based drawing or use VBOs (see FoFiX issue 350).
IIRC, in terms of code architecture, PyOpenGL 3 is VERY different from version 2.
In any case, contributions are always welcome and thanks alot for your interest!

maybe he could start working on the pitch bend module to make it better because it don't really bend the pitch well it makes static mostly :P

Re: FoFiX 4.0.0 Development Thread
Hello!
To all developers I address you:
Please don't kill me after reading the next few lines, ok?
Ok...So it's just that today, for the first time I've played GH:M (the original one...on a PS3) and I've decided to play BASS, on expert. And I was like for the difficulties I've encountered (on the really fast songs) because of the (now is the time to "don't kill me") open strum notes. It is really, but really much more fun to play BASS with them. I know this has already been discussed before, and I know there is a FoFiX Issue reporting this but I've noticed that this, is a feature, that doesn't exist on the "Wiki: Road map". That makes me kind of sad because today I really had fun playing BASS...like, for the first time that happened to me. This open strum note is really tricky (specially playing "Creeping Death").
And so, I would really want to know if you're planning on making this possible. It would be great if you did.
Please don't kill me...
Keep up the AWESOME work!

Re: FoFiX 4.0.0 Development Thread
sry if this is an inappropriate place to post
an option to automatically switch to a theme per song would be cool
like when i pick a song to play from the GH3 set list, its set to automatically use the GH3 theme
or a song from RB2 loads the RB2 theme. etc.
-maybe something in the song.ini which gets ignored if there is no matching theme present? idk
huge props to everyone involved in this incredible project. atb
